RACING ON THE POTOMAC.
The Virginia Rowing Association Holds
Its Annual Regatta.

ALEXANDRIA, VA, July 1.-THE annual
regatta of the Virginia Rowing Association
took place here to-day in rough water that
considerably affected the time made in sew
eral events. The course was one mile and a
half straight away up the river.
The first event was the junior singles. 1t
was between the Potomacs and COumbias of
Washington. The ColumhiaS came in one
length ahead, but the race was given to the
Potomacs ON a foul. The time was 1920.
THE STATE GIG RACE.
Considerable interest was attached to the
State gig race, from the fact that the Rich
mond crew had already won it twice, and a
third victory would entitlc them to perma-
nently hold the prize, a gold cup, valued at
$500. The Old Dominion crew of Alexan-
dria started in the lead with a beautiful
stroke of about fortv-two to the minute,
whicn they kept up to tho finish, beating
the University school of Petersburg by -four
Or five lengths, the Virginias of Richmond
abandoning the race when they found they
were hopelessly in the rear, The time was

The senior four-oared race was won by
the Potomacs, who led the Columbias, theiI
only opponents, from the start TO the finish
